How rare is it to find a 2013 that had this option and it was available on the x5's correct. I would also like to hear any options on why any other year would be just as good as the 2013 model.
If searching 2013's only, I would estimate half of them have the optional LED headlights. I look all the time for fun and that's been my experience. If you're searching all E70 X5M's (2010-2013) simultaneously, then yes I'd call them a rare find.

The LED LCI tails would be standard on 2011-2013 X5M's.

I'd get a 2013 w/ the LED headlights...because of the LED headlights. The older style halogen coronas look terrible, they really date the car. And LUX bulbs are no improvement.

Just my .02.
thanks for your input. with the pricing coming down I will probably just spring for the 13. I did a retrofit in my 08 M3 and it ended up costing like 2k and I thought that was too much.
